Juneyao Group, one of China’s leading aviation companies, and Lufthansa Technik have entered into an exclusive, landmark agreement for comprehensive engine overhaul services, marking their first long-term partnership of this kind. Covering more than 40 engine events across Juneyao Air, the group’s full-service carrier, and 9 Air, its low-cost subsidiary, the CFM56 agreement includes overhauls, condition monitoring and engineering consultancy. It represents the largest engine services commitment in Lufthansa Technik’s history in China.
Under the agreement, services will be performed at Lufthansa Technik’s engine facility in Hamburg, Germany, for a combined fleet of CFM56-5B engines operated by Juneyao Air and CFM56-7B engines used by 9 Air, ensuring optimal operational readiness for both airlines.
The partnership builds on more than a decade of successful collaboration between Lufthansa Technik and Juneyao Group across multiple service areas, including Single Component Maintenance and Mobile Engine Services. With this latest agreement, the relationship now extends to full engine overhaul support.
“We require a dependable and experienced partner to support our high-performance operations, particularly during peak travel periods. Based on numerous positive experiences with Lufthansa Technik, we have placed our trust in their expertise. To ensure stable operations and seamless technical processes, it is essential for us to collaborate with a reliable partner, and we look forward to strengthening this cooperation even further,” said Junjin Wang, Chairman of Juneyao Group.
